Disks of polycarbonate plastic from a supplier are analyzed for scratch and shock resistance. The results from 100 disks are summarized as follows: Shock resistance High LowScratch High 70 9Resistance Low 16 5Let A denote the event that a disk has high shock resistance, and let B denote the event that a disk has high scratch resistance. Are events A and B independent?

Part a

The probability that the event disk has high shock resistance is 0.86

Part b

The probability that a disk has high scratch resistance given that the disk has high shock resistance is 0.8140

Step-by-step explanation:

(a).

From the given information,

Let A denote the event that a disk has high shock resistance,

and let B denote the event that a disk has high scratch resistance.

                          SHOCK HIGH(A)     SHOCK LOW(A)          TOTAL

SCRATCH  

HIGH(B)               70                               9                                79

RESISTANCE       16                               5                                  21

LOW(B)

TOTAL                86                                 14                                100

Compute P(A).

Therefore, the probability value of the event A is 0.86.

Part a

The probability that the event disk has high shock resistance is 0.86

Explanation | Hint for next step

Based on the given information, the probability that the event disk has high shock resistance is 0.86. That means it is approximately equal to 86%.

Step 2 of 2

(b)

From the given information,

Let A denote the event that a disk has high shock resistance,

and let B denote the event that a disk has high scratch resistance.

                      SHOCK HIGH(A)     SHOCK LOW(A)            TOTAL

SCRATCH

HIGH(B)             70                               9                               79

SCRATCH

LOW(B)             16                                 5                               21

TOTAL             86                                15                               100

ComputeP(B/A) = P(A∩B) /P(A)  ;P(A) > 0

P(A∩B)  =70/100

 =0.70

From the part [a], the probability value of the event A is P(A) =0.86 .

Therefore,

P( {B/A}  = P(A∩B)  /P(A)

=  0.70 /0.86

=0.8140

Part b

The probability that a disk has high scratch resistance given that the disk has high shock resistance is 0.8140

Explanation | Common mistakes

The disk with high scratch resistance is found to be 81.40% with the condition that the disk with high shock resistance is maintained.

sorry i got nothing

step-by-step explanation:

explanation:

the loan estimate encourages consumers to shop. since it is the lenders who are required to issue a standardized loan estimate in a specific time frame, this way consumers are provided an opportunity to compare lenders and their products. otherwise consumer wouldn't know the benefits offered by other lenders.  

if a loan originator does not provide a loan estimate within 3 business days of receiving a completed loan application, that lender is in violation. lenders are required to issue a loan estimate within 3 days of applying for a loan or within 7 days prior to closing. having a loan estimate has following information.

not having loan estimate won't give you an idea of money to be borrowed.

you get to know your interest rates.

you also get to know if your interest rate can or may vary.

not having a good faith estimate can keep you unaware of aforementioned points.
